Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a heater core failure in my 2002 diamante. i now have antifreeze leaking into my passenger side floor. i have an antifreeze smell and smoke coming from the vents in the car. i got low on antifreeze and almost overheated on the belt parkway. it is very hard to see at night because windows will fog up and defroster makes problem worse. i have been told the cars computer is positioned under the heater core so i have to hope i do not have a computer issue as my service light has gobne on as well> i have had to replace 3 engine sensors in the last few months ( the heater core issue could be the root cause). this is a very serious situation and needs to be addressed. i see alot of the complaints for this model are for this issue. there are many people with this issue. *tr
